Description

A

–A

14

Input

Address Inputs. 

Used to select one of the 32,768 bytes of the nvSRAM.

DQ

0

-DQ

7

Input or Output

Bidirectional Data IO Lines

. Used as input or output lines depending on operation.

WE

W

Input

Write Enable Input, Active LOW

. When the chip is enabled and WE is LOW, data on the IO 

pins is written to the specific address location.

CE

E

Input

Chip Enable Input, Active LOW

. When LOW, selects the chip. When HIGH, deselects the chip.

OE

G

Input

Output Enable, Active LOW

. The active LOW OE input enables the data output buffers during 

read cycles. Deasserting OE HIGH causes the IO pins to tri-state.

V

SS

Ground

Ground for the Device

.

 

The device is connected to ground of the system.

V

CC

Power Supply

Power Supply Inputs to the Device

HSB

Input or Output

Hardware Store Busy (HSB)

. When LOW, this output indicates a Hardware Store is in progress. 

When pulled low external to the chip, it initiates a nonvolatile STORE operation. A weak internal 
pull up resistor keeps this pin high if not connected (connection optional).

V

CAP

Power Supply

AutoStore

 

Capacitor

. Supplies power to nvSRAM during power loss to store data from SRAM 

to nonvolatile elements.
